Hello,

I really want to make my site a Symphony site. But I need someone who can help and teach me how to make the following site.

I want to make a blog which can do this.

1) Have a collapsible archive menu so when a reader chooses a month he/she only sees the articles of that month.

2) A recent post list.

3) A way I can control how many articles on a page is displayed as a example It could be that when a user wants to read febr. 2005 and he/she is on the first page of that month he/she sees 2 articles and on page 2 he/she sees 3 articles.

Is there someone who wants to help me and teach me how I can do this ? I have read the xml/ xslt tutorails of w3schools. Further I have no kknowlegde of xml or xslt but im eager to learn.

You should download Symphony and have a play with the default ensemble which is a basic blog that covers most of your requirements above.

The collapsible archive is something that can be done with CSS/Javascript, so you should be ok there :)

I know that the default ensemble covers most of my requirements but I want to cover all my requirements. And I played with the standard ensemble for a while and did not have success.
